I often hear people talking about how "Most" of Rare's staff left, but I never see any proof. Rare itself has commented that fewer than 10 people left after the buyout.

Throw in the Stamper bros, who left recently, and a couple of guys who left after Goldeneye was released (but before the buyout) and you've got less than 14 Rare employees that left since the N64 years.

I don't deny that Rare has had problems since leaving Nintendo, but I have yet to see anyone produce decent evidence that Rare's problems are because all the best staff left.
